LeafGuard Gutters of St. Cloud Case Studies: Connecting LeafGuard Gutters From Different Elevations

The 2nd story LeafGuard Gutter run is connected to the lower gutter run with a downspout with a combination of A & B elbows for a seamless and streamlined look.

Challenge

On the backside of the home, there is two different roof elevations. Customer did not want a downspout on the right side, and wanted water run off to drain on the left side of home only.

Solution

Our gutter technicians first installed the section of LeafGuard on the 2nd story then hung another section of LeafGuard to the lower roof elevation. On the 2nd story (left side) they used a Big Mouth Adapter and B elbow to keep the downspout close to the house - avoiding a clunky/bulky look. They cut into the top of the lowest gutter run and used an A elbow to seamlessly connect the gutter runs on different elevations.

Water run off runs freely through the highest section and out the lower gutter runs downspout on the left side of the home. Customer is very happy that our team was able to create a system that drains water only on one side of the home and is still pleasing to the eye!
